Then the f****** Hughes brothers showed up and took a dump on that little moment of contentment. I’m not a fan of their work. I think that stylistically, they’ve got some great ideas, but every single film they’ve made has felt somehow hollow — including their impressive debut, Menace II Society. They’re just not fully developed film makers. Which means that, unsurprisingly, I’m less than thrilled about the prospect of them helming Akira."
